Default Word 2007 keeps losing formatting

Hello. I have a very weird problem in Word 2007.
It keeps losing my formatting when I reopen the document.



eg. Times new roman fonts change to book antiqua for part of the document.
This gets verry irritating as I have to do it over and over...


edit: It seems "book antiqua" is the font of the theme used in my document.

So modify the "body" font for your document.

I suspect you are not intentionally using styles. This is a BIG mistake if true.

I went at least a year refusing to be "bothered" by styles. Most of the headaches I had getting documents to look right can be attributed to that refusal.

I see.
What about photos and lines moving all the time? (when the fonts remain the same).

Which Text Wrapping has been specified for these objects? If Text Wrapping is "In line with text," an object will behave like a (large) text character and move as the surrounding text is added or deleted.

If Text Wrapping is set to something other than "In line with text," the object will be positioned relative to the page (or relative to paragraphs on the page). The object will move to a different page if the paragraph containing the object anchor moves. See also Working with Anchors.

I'm not sure what do you mean because I have a Greek version of Word.
My document looks like this in all its length.
(those music examples are actually inserted photos)

If you right-click an object in Word, the command for Wrap Text has the icon that you see in the screen shot below (if that helps).

I see. If i can translate it well (i don't know how the command would be in English Word), I have chosen "behind the text" for every inserted photo.

Only if you want text to be able to be on top of the image as if you typed on the image.


You might want "Tight."
